Loose Anagen Hair syndrome occurs in dark-skinned children and often improves on its own.
research Characterization of hair lipid images by argon sputter etching-scanning electron microscopy
Hair texture changes with age due to varying levels of lipids.
research Protein and amino acid composition of hair from mice carrying the naked (N) gene
The N gene affects the protein makeup of mouse hair.
research Keratin 71 Mutations: From Water Dogs to Woolly Hair
A mutation in the KRT71 gene causes a hair disorder by disrupting hair follicle structure and texture.
research Chemoprevention of doxorubicin-induced alopecia in mice by dietary administration of l-cystine and vitamin B6

research A function for Rac1 in the terminal differentiation and pigmentation of hair
Rac1 is essential for proper hair structure and color.
research Analyzing the laser‐light reflection from human hair fibers. II. Deriving a measure of hair luster
The conclusion is that a new method to measure hair shine was confirmed to match people's visual assessments.
research Effect of equilibrium pH on the structure and properties of bleach‐damaged human hair fibers
Hair's structure and properties change with pH; acidic pH maintains strength and less swelling, while alkaline pH increases water content and swelling.
research Can plant‐derived phytochemicals provide symptom relief for hair loss? A critical review
Some plant-based chemicals may help with hair growth, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness.
research Role of Platelet-rich Plasma in the Management of Androgenetic Alopecia
PRP helps hair growth in common hair loss disorder.
research Hair keratin film as a substitute device for human hair
Keratin film can effectively replace human hair for testing hair damage.
research Low‐dose oral minoxidil improves global hair density and length in children with loose anagen hair syndrome
Low-dose oral minoxidil increases hair thickness and length in children with a hair disorder called Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome.
research Hair loss and Hedgehog inhibitors: a class effect?
Hedgehog pathway inhibitors used for skin cancer can cause significant hair loss, which may improve after stopping the medication.
research Molecular evolution of HR, a gene that regulates the postnatal cycle of the hair follicle
Changes in the HR gene have influenced hair growth and may lead to hair loss conditions in humans.
research Histology of the Human Hair Follicle
Understanding hair follicle structure is key for treating hair disorders and could help develop new treatments.
research The Critical Roles of Serum/Glucocorticoid-Regulated Kinase 3 (SGK3) in the Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Homeostasis
SGK3 is essential for proper hair growth and health.
research The Human Type II Keratin Gene Cluster on Chromosome 12q13.13: Final Count or Hidden Secrets?
The document concludes that the human keratin gene cluster is complex, with a need for updated naming to reflect over 50 functional genes important for hair and skin biology.
research Fundamental studies on the interaction between moisture and textiles. Part X. Moisture sorption properties of wool and hair fibers.
Wool and hair fibers absorb moisture similarly due to their keratin structure, with the amount of non-crystalline areas affecting the moisture uptake.
research How different is human hair? A critical appraisal of the reported differences in global hair fibre characteristics and properties towards defining a more relevant framework for hair type classification
Human hair varies widely and should be classified by curl type rather than race.
research Kinetics and Equilibrium of Solute Diffusion into Human Hair
Hair absorbs molecules differently based on their size, charge, and love for water, and less at higher pH; this can help make better hair products.
research Expression analysis of the type I keratin protein keratin 33A in goat coat hair
Keratin 33A is a key protein in goat winter coats, especially in high-producing breeds.
research Anti-keratin Monoclonal Antibodies for Identifying Animal Hair Fibers
Scientists made antibodies to tell cashmere and wool apart, which could improve how we identify animal fibers.
research Morphological analysis of polymers on hair fibers by SEM and AFM
Polyquaternium 7® builds up on hair, improving its look and feel, and AFM is good for measuring these changes.
research Keratin-mediated hair growth and its underlying biological mechanism
Keratin injections can promote hair growth by affecting hair-forming cells and tissue development.
research Determination of Secondary Follicle Characteristics, Density, Activity, and Hoxc13 Expression Pattern of Hexi Cashmere Goats Breed
Hexi cashmere goats' hair growth varies by stage, with Hoxc13 linked to hair activity.
